Unfortunately, too much is being made of the complexity and cumbersome length of health care legislation. Too many people don't understand that as a legal document subject to legal interpretation by the Courts and the implementation of the law into actual regulation and practice requires a tremendous amount of precise word and phrasing in order to accurately mold the likely conflict between conservative and liberal policies that will command what our Country's health care system will look like. The complexity is required and we should be proud and laud those people who are able to actually write down this convoluted and technically difficult task into one legislative bill. Very few people realize the enormity of this task.
